By searching for souls and rampant slaves, Luo Hong has completely confirmed that the void-refining aliens who are chasing him are the reward missions of the Guangyuan Heavenly Book.
"A big Yaksha who can drive rampant slaves, and a Shadow Clan who is obviously a red shadow but is so gray, there is really no simple one!"
Luo Hong frowned and muttered to himself.
These people are not ordinary virtual refining beings. They are stronger than those of the same level and have more methods.
Luo Hong believed that he had to be careful in dealing with the previous one in order to be sure of victory.
Now, they actually formed an alliance just because of some accidents. Such a cautious approach immediately made Luo Hong feel quite troubled.
"Since we are not the Yaksha King, why do fellow Daoist Luo have to worry? Anyway, as long as we don't take the initiative to confront them now, they won't be able to catch up with us in this strange forest."
Ye Ying was very optimistic at the moment.
"It's not that simple! There are currently six Void Refining aliens who are chasing Luo. Four of them have been to the Lost Forest. He knows that there is something wrong with the miasma in this forest.
Therefore, these four people have never been exposed to miasma from the beginning, and based on their cultivation in the realm of refining the void, they would probably have to break through five or six miasmas before they would be affected by the whispering magical power.
If they catch us, even if we escape into the miasma, we will still be caught up by them.
In short chases, they are even more flexible than us, after all, they don't have to worry about the thickness of the miasma!"
Luo Hong said solemnly, but there was no hint of surprise in his tone that four of the six people had entered the Lost Forest. It is said that this ratio is very abnormal.
But no matter what, the decision to continue deep into the Lost Forest will not change. After briefly explaining the situation, Luo Hong held one by one, and the three of them plunged into the miasma cloud in front of them.
...
"Huh? Why is it him! Humph!"
Tens of thousands of miles away, Meng Ai, who was flying among the miasma, suddenly changed his expression and revealed an angry look.
"Huh? What happened? Why did I lose the sense of a shadow slave?"
Ziyun on the side also immediately noticed something was wrong, but his shadow slave didn't have much intelligence, and he didn't know what happened at the moment.
"I unexpectedly found the rightful owner. This person's magical power is indeed very powerful, and he easily captured one of my rampant slaves!
But judging from the previous traces and their current location, are these three people planning to escape into the depths of the Lost Forest?"
Ram slaves need to be cultivated with their own essence and blood, and Meng Ai couldn't help but feel heartbroken when one of them was lost like this.
"It turned out that we bumped into those three people. No wonder we missed, but their desire to escape deep into the Lost Forest was out of imagination.
Even if their luck is amazing and they are not blocked by the miasma, those things in the depths are enough to slow them down!"
Ziyun said with a dark smile.
"That's good, it saves me waiting to hide and seek with them in this maze!"
Meng Ai's eyes narrowed and he said, after following these days, he was already a little impatient.
At the moment, the two of them didn't need to communicate, they both sped up without saying a word.
...
About a day later, Luo Hong and the others had successfully crossed the previous limit of thousands of miles and arrived at a place thousands of miles away from the center.
According to the previous ancient map, there is not a single light point in this area, which means there is no stable spiritual orifice.
In other words, there will be no elixir of heaven and earth here, and there will be no powerful ancient beasts to protect the elixir.
But on the contrary, the closer Luo Hong got to the center, the more uneasy he felt in his heart, which made him lower his escape speed again and again.
"My consciousness couldn't find any abnormal aura. Could it be that the danger is hidden in the miasma?"
As soon as he had this idea, several strong winds suddenly came from the side and behind him. Luo Hong immediately used the black wind flag without thinking, and moved the three of them hundreds of feet away in an instant.
Then there were four loud "boom boom" sounds, and the sudden attack hit the ground.
The three of them immediately turned around and saw four giant black stone arrows ten feet long inserted into the ground nearly halfway, and the surrounding soil and vegetation turned into gray-white stones under their spiritual light.
"The power of petrification?!"
After Ye Ying exclaimed in surprise, she immediately looked towards the direction where these giant arrows were coming from, and then saw four black shadows more than twenty feet tall standing up in the miasma.
Although it was not clear through the miasma, it could be seen from their outlines that they were drawing bows and nocking arrows.
"Boom! Boom!"
At the same time, a series of huge and dull footsteps were heard from the direction the three of them were heading, and a giant black stone statue holding a double pestle was striding out of the miasma, heading towards the three of them with murderous intent.
"No, we are surrounded!"
Ye Ying's eyes flashed with light, and through the many obstacles, she saw that in addition to these five giant statues, there were also black shadows standing up from the depths of the miasma.
Obviously, they broke into a giant statue killing array.
"Haha, after so many years, I finally saw something that wasn't broken.
Fellow Taoist Yingming, could you tell them to stop?"
What is strange is that, facing such a critical situation, Luo Hong not only did not panic, but also breathed a sigh of relief.
For no other reason than that the black stone giant statue that strode out of the miasma was very similar to the giant gatekeeper statue he saw outside the Wentian Cave in the human world.
"Let me try."
Ying Ming felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with these black stone giants that suddenly appeared.
There is no doubt that they are both puppets and share the same blood.
As the magic spells of both hands were pinched, the sound of wooden blocks colliding was heard from Ying Ming's chest.
I saw a hole as big as a fist exposed in her puppet body, and then a pink flower bud floated out of it.
The flower bud began to bloom slowly as soon as it was separated from the body, and a golden light shone out from the gap. It was not until it was fully bloomed that a golden flame emerged from the center of the flower.
At this time, the golden flames swayed slightly, creating a gentle spiritual wave that quickly dispersed in all directions.
Any black stone giant statue that touches this spiritual wave seems to have been pressed on the pause button, and its body immediately freezes and no longer moves.
After a moment, Ying Ming took back her psychic core, nodded to Luo Hong and said:
"I've shut down these puppets and can move on now."
"Very good. I hope there won't be any more trouble."
These black stone giants looked rough and thick at first glance. Luo Hong didn't want to waste his energy on them, so he couldn't help but said with joy.
And Ye Ying finally realized why Luo Hong dared to go deep into this place. He must have already guessed the identity of the owner of this place!
"This person can not only refine psychic puppets, but can also arrange spiritual orifice arrays. No matter how you look at it, he shouldn't be an unknown person. But I have never heard of it before. Could it be that the owner of this place is not a member of the human and demon tribes?"
senior?"
Ye Ying, who was curious, did not ask, but continued to follow Luo Hong silently.
During the subsequent journey, the three of them did not encounter any accidents. However, after entering the last thousand miles, they saw an disturbing scene.
I saw that there were broken black stone giant statues everywhere on the ground, and huge pits and abnormal landforms formed by fighting skills could be seen everywhere.
No matter how you look at it, there was an extremely fierce battle here a long time ago.
"Owner...."
Seeing this scene, Ying Ming couldn't help but have a worried look on her face.
She had heard Luo Hong's analysis before that the owner of this place was probably not around, but firstly, they were not sure that the owner of this place was Wenzhenren at the time, and secondly, the possibility of being unable to escape did exist, so she
You can also keep your look unchanged.
But after seeing the black stone giant statue and the traces of the tragic battle, Ying Ming had basically determined that the owner of this place was Wentian Ren, and that he was either captured or killed after the battle.
Otherwise, after such a long time, it would be impossible for him not to clean up the traces of the fighting here, leaving a tail as big as the Lost Forest.
"Fellow Daoist Yingming, although Luo is not completely sure what happened here, we can guarantee that Senior Wentian will suffer some hardship at most, and his life will definitely be fine. Don't be so pessimistic yet."
Luo Hong immediately comforted him.
"Senior Wentian? Is this the name of the lord of this place?"
Ye Ying secretly remembered this key information.
Not long after, the three of them arrived above a dilapidated cave.
This cave was originally a classic style built in the heart of the mountain, but the top half of the Lingfeng where it was located was directly destroyed by someone using great supernatural powers, so that it was turned into an open-air cave.
Seeing this scene, the three people's spirits vividly recalled the scene of the owner of this place being knocked on the door without any courtesy.
Since all the formation restrictions were destroyed, Luo Hong scanned the entire cave with only his spiritual consciousness, and found that it was cleaner than a dog licking it, and not a single valuable spiritual object was left.
Luo Hong couldn't help but frown at this.
"Fellow Taoist Yingming, please sense carefully and find out the location of Senior Wentian's aura."
"Don't bother, I've found it."
After Ying Ming said that, she flew towards the largest stone chamber in the cave.
In this stone chamber, except for the formations on the ground, there are no furnishings.
"When the master arranges the cave, he has the habit of building both light and dark at the same time, and he usually uses special techniques to arrange the teleportation array that connects the two caves and the teleportation array that leads to the outside world into light and dark formations.
Without the use of secret techniques, the teleportation array under our feet can only send us out of the Lost Forest, but as long as..."
Saying that, Ying Ming used her fingers to shoot more than ten magic formulas towards the formation under her feet. Immediately, the entire teleportation formation shone brightly, and the formation patterns unexpectedly underwent mysterious changes. It took ten breaths to completely stop.
"As long as we use the secret technique, this teleportation array can take us to the dark palace. The master usually leaves the most important things there."
Luo Hong understands the light and dark caves quite well. He even learned from Old Demon Han and would arrange the caves in the manner of a cunning rabbit with three caves.
When it comes to practicing Taoism, people who ask the truth are far from being Han Laomo's opponent.
Ying Ming had made it so clear, how could Luo Hong not know that the thing with the aura of Wentian Tian must be in the secret palace.
So, after receiving Luo Hong's signal, Ying Ming activated the teleportation array at her feet.
After a burst of white light, the three people immediately appeared in a stone room.
At a glance, Luo Hong saw the spiritual light flashing on the door of the stone chamber, and there was a faint aura of prohibition. He immediately knew that the formation was still maintained here and was not abandoned.
"It's strange that all the restrictions here have been destroyed. It's so wrong!"
With a sweep of her consciousness, Ying Ming relied on her familiarity with the Wentian people's confinement techniques to discover that this secret palace had also been invaded before, and she couldn't help but wonder.
"This matter is indeed strange, but no matter what, let's go to the place where the breath is and take a look before talking about it."
Although Luo Hong also has doubts in his heart, it has been a long time since the disaster here, and the destruction of the ban is actually a good thing for them.
Ying Ming also wanted to know what his master left behind, which could smell exactly like him, so he immediately took the lead and walked towards the stone room.
Walking on the wide passage, the three of them could see a stone door appearing on both sides from time to time, either tightly closed or open.
But the three of them were distracted by this, and still walked unswervingly deeper into the cave.
After about a stick of incense, the three of them first entered a carefully decorated stone room, and then stopped in front of a closed stone door.
Although this stone door is no different from the ones we saw before, judging from the dense seals and restrictions on it, the things at this door must be quite important.
If it weren't for Ying Ming's deep connection with Wentian, she wouldn't be able to sense the aura behind the door.
Just when Ying Ming stretched out her hand and was about to lift the seal on the stone door, Luo Hong stopped her.
"Wait a minute, don't open this door yet."
"Why? What we are looking for is right behind us!"
Ying Ming said reluctantly that she had waited too long.
"The closer you are to success, the more cautious you must be. The layout here looks familiar to Luo. If you don't want to encounter any surprises, it's better to take a look at these jade slips first."
The so-called familiarity was because Luo Hong felt that the layout of this stone chamber was very similar to his laboratory.
There are two stone rooms separated by a door. One is equipped with desks, bookshelves, and various miscellaneous things. It is a place for theoretical research. The other is a place for practical research that seals all spiritual energy with prohibitions.
Taking himself as an example, under normal circumstances, there are some dangers in stone chambers for practical research, especially this kind of stone chamber that has been running alone for countless years. Who knows what changes have occurred inside.
Hearing this, it seemed that some unpleasant memories came to mind. A hint of fear appeared on Ying Ming's face, and then she nodded and said:
"Fellow Daoist Luo is absolutely right. I have been waiting for so many years and I am not in a hurry for this moment."
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and took a jade slip and put it on her forehead.
"Fairy Ye, please help me as well. Go through all the jade slips here as soon as possible to find clues about the stone chamber opposite."
Although Ye Ying is a bit like an outsider here, Luo Hong has put her in danger, and giving her some opportunities can be regarded as a kind of compensation.
After saying that, he reached out and took a jade slip from the shelf, ready to browse it quickly.
But as soon as he took a look, he became interested and read the contents carefully.
This jade slip records nothing else but the secret of this mysterious forest!
